Some additional information with regard to dimension text display showing as an empty rectangle:-

The rectangle changes size to reflect any changes in "labelling" or text style.
All other "Text" i.e. M text and single line text entries display as a rectangle.
Text in drawings from previous versions also display this way.

When I first tried out 2.2.0 alpha text was displaying "correctly" as text.

I'm using LibreCAD 2.2.0 alpha on an ASUS F552L under Ubuntu MATE 16.04.

Currently I've gone back to QCAD as I need to complete some details for a project.

Hoping someone with more knowledge than I have can help as 2.2.0 is a really excellent version of LibreCAD.

Hal.
